Yeah, and I noticed you didn't respond to my post to you so I guess you don't
have an answer.

What post to me? The one where you asked for specific things I think Obama will
change? Since I wasn't making any claims he would change the system (to the
large scale changes Paul has argued for), I figured you were once again lumping
me into a group erroneously. Once again, I reiterate my position. Obama was
(IMHO) the better choice of the two, but both would have governed largely as a
centrist/moderate. In these elections, a third-party candidate is simply not
viable, and will not be viable until a bottom-up capturing of local and state
positions secures a large enough base. Until that point, a third party vote on
the federal election is (again, IMHO) wasted, as it secures the election for
someone who do not want. What I do is cast my federal vote for the better of
the two main choices, then vote third party on all state and local ballots when
possible (sometimes libertarian, sometimes green, sometimes populist, if the
option is there and the person
is honorable).
Does that answer your question?

I think it's too late for a third party solution in the white house. That
would threaten
the establishment so events will get worse before that could ever happen.
Obama
quells the fears and anger of people, but once again people will wake up to his
'no change' and people will start all over again, but I'm wondering if it is
too late.
You answered my question, sort of. I'm satisfied, thanks. At least I see
where
people's focus and hopes lay. Mine are in a different direction, but enough
about
me.
